“The world of Ultra is cool, the aesthetics distinctive and precise.”  – Keskisuomalainen 11.3.2017

ULTRA is a cool stage performance that boldly mixes acrobatics, dance and music. In the show, space rock meets power ballet and disco music flirts with contemporary gymnastics. Between the horizons of the end of the world, we will marvel at, for example, a fashion show and a menagerie.

ULTRA is mystical and rugged – bizarre and seductive at the same time. The result is a powerful wordless mindscape.

– Visual landscapes of the mind and space rock at the end of the world –
